Short Story
This is my third year dipping in the cold clear Georgian Bay waters to raise money to fight TCEs power storage plant. My family is a fifth generation in the Meaford area. I am raising money to keep the area and waters clean and clear for future generations. TCEs plant is based on a 100 year old outdated, environmentally destructive, expensive inefficient power storage design that will pollute the bay and destroy the escarpment. There are much cheaper, cleaner and more efficient ways to store excess power including battery power which is being implemented around the world. Your donation will help us save the Georgian Bay from TCEs disastrous project! Thank you for your support!

Story
This initiative is dedicated to preservation of the pristine and natural beauty and water quality of Georgian Bay and its surrounding area. We live, work, and play on the amazing Niagara Escarpment – a World Biosphere Reserve – and, like thousands of other people who signed petitions, are opposed to TC Energy’s proposal for a massive Hydroelectric Pumped Storage project on the Canadian Forces base (CFB) in Meaford, Ontario. The project would very likely have devastating impacts on the biodiversity and water quality of Georgian Bay and the escarpment. It is shortsighted, outdated, and an inefficient approach to energy generation and storage. It would destroy approximately 500 acres of forest, and affect many areas of spawning grounds and aquatic ecosystems. This could harm or destroy the habitat of as many as 30 species at risk known to be living there.
